    Fine. But when we were in the ascendency, I'd rather persist with our plan rather than go for "confusion" as a tactic.

    It's because we keep rotating the 9 and 10. They need to decide who are the best and play them to form a relationship. We look so disjointed in those positions.

    It’s happening too many times, proven striker needs to be the priority in January (again).

    No luck today in front of goal, ball just doesn’t seem to drop in the right place

    It's hard for the wide players as well when one striker might make a run, the other might drop deep etc. Those relationships need to become instinct. I'd be happy for Adil and Mayenda to play a run of games together at this point.

    Yeah me too. Need to do something as it's going to be December and we still have 0 zero goals from a striker. That's absolutely ridiculous to be fair.

    I think Mowbray needs to hang his hat on one striker and say that's the main man no matter what

    Has it ever been known that any team EVER has gone half a season without one single goal being scored by a centre forward?
